Pennsy Blues - Conrail in the Keystone State DVD

The great Pennsylvania Railroad dominated its namesake state. After the Penn Central merger debacle, the Federal Government assumed control of most of the northeastern roads. The Consolidated Rail Corporation, was set up to operate these lines. There were a lot of lines to operate, upgrade and consolidate in the Keystone State and Conrail did a masterful job, eventually going public and making the government a huge profit. This program covers the mainline around Altoona, the heart of the Pennsy, including the "Brickyard", Horseshoe Curve, Gallitzin and Cresson. Away from Altoona , we also catch some action at Enola Yard at Harrisburg.
